It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Fairmont had no problem doing just that on Monday. They were the clear victors by a 12-2 margin over the Springfield Wildcats. The result was nothing new for the Firebirds, who have now won eight matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Jaylin Turner spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on three hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in eight consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Carlee Netherton was a standout: she went 2-for-4 with one home run, two runs, and one stolen base. The team also got some help courtesy of Sophia Barnette, who went 2-for-4 with three RBI, one triple, and one stolen base.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Fairmont kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 14 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Springfield only managed three hits.
Fairmont has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight games. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-8 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.4 runs on average over those games.
